डाउनलोड "Paris Under Siege: The Real History of the Vikings in the Frankish Empire"

In this video we will ask which historical events inspired the part of the show Vikings. The Vikings stood at the gates of Paris many times and Paris was attacked by Vikings at least five times. Ragnar, or rather the Viking leader Reginherus, was the first to reach the city, while Rollo was one of the leaders of the last Viking siege of Paris. It was this final assault that inspired many of the epic elements in the series. So, let’s take a look at what the Vikings were actually up to in the Frankish Empire, how they came to advance to Paris, into the heart of the empire, and what role the historical Ragnar and Rollo played in these events.
